Monday at the Movies (a day late)

I went to see this yesterday! Very cute movie and it made me want to go to Greece. The scenery was gorgeous including the tour bus driver. I liked one of the things Richard Dreyfus said. He said "Stop looking for obstacles and look for the magic." I think that's going to be my motto right now.

Lots of hugs,

Fashion Friday

I found these cute tops on line at Casual Living. The shirred top is so cute with white capris.

I love patchwork and this is going to be mine soon.

The one shoulder look but you can still wear a regular bra.

Cute ruffle top tee. The ruffles aren't too much...they just look dressy and feminine.

This is a two piece set: cardigan and matching tank. The picture below shows the print in better focus.

Another of my favorite things: bandana prints. I love this for the 4th of July.

Tomorrow I'm going to the Yorba Linda Farmers Market. So I'll let you know what it's like.

Have a fantastic weekend.

Hugs, Susan

Tonight at the Sheraton

Tonight Will and Steve Donn are playing at the the Sheraton in Cerritos. The show starts at 6 pm. Will is going to do some of his original compositions. It sounds like a great show!

These are pictures from the Sheraton's web site. It looks like a really nice venue.

Hope some of you from So. Cal. can make the show.

Monday at the Movies

I can't wait for this to come out! I love movies set in the thirties and forties and movies from that time period. This is about Dillinger and other "public enemies" from 1933-1934. It's starring Johnny Depp as Dillinger. I hope this is a good one...the trailer looked great.

I'm also reading the book by Bryan Burrough which came out in 2004. Of course now it has Johnny Depp's picture on the cover. Can you think of a better way to sell books? This one I actually bought new. I read so many books that I'm usually buying from the used book store here in town. This is a cheap way to go especially since I like mysteries and thrillers in paperback. I wanted to read this book first (and it's really interesting) so I would understand what's going on in the movie and historically too. It tells about the bank robbers and about how the FBI got started.

Have a marvelous Monday!

Fashion Friday

I thought I'd show you what I bought the other day to wear to Kobe's. I have this top which is chocolate brown (not black). I liked the little tie on the bottom...I'm still in Flapper mode.

I also got these in chocolate brown to go with them. If your top and bottom are the same color, it's supposed to make you look taller and slimmer. I need all the help I can get!

I'm debating about this dress. I would like it if it's not too "MuMu" and without those leggings. I don't have a problem with leggings with the right top but this doesn't need them. I'll have to try this dress on and see if it fits. I like the color alot.

Now this is my kind of style. Simple lines and something fun going on at the top. You wouldn't need a necklace of course. Throw it on and some shoes and you are out the door looking pretty pulled together.

This is really simple but if you look closely at the sleeves you'll see little rhinestone buttons. Even a plain Tee has to have "something!"

I love the embellishements on this top, too.

Nice feminine touch to this little tank.

Even the plain white Tee has lace at the bottom. This also comes in turquoise and in pink.

Sexy and dressy with the flutter sleeves. I love the blue, too.

Have a fabulous Friday!

David Carradine

I was so saddened by the news that David Carradine had passed away. He's been a "crush" of mine for many years even before he did "Kung Fu." He was on TV before that playing "Shane." I thought he was so cute in buckskins. Anyway I've always liked him so I thought I'd share a few pictures I found on the net.

Have a good day.

Monday at the Movies

I've been hanging with Henry lately. This a fun way to learn your English history...not nearly as dry as The Oxford Illustrated History of Britain (Caren had it for a class). Like it says on the poster "It's good to be the King." They are pretty much bopping like bunnies.

It's filmed in Ireland and the scenery is wonderful, the costumes are gorgeous and Jonathan Rhys Meyers isn't bad to look at either. (See him in "Elvis" if you can...you won't regret it!).

I don't have Showtime so I missed it on TV. I bought Seasons 1 and 2. I am so hooked, I have to get Season 3 now.

Have a fabulous Monday!

Hugs, Susan
